Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas' big fat Indian wedding looked royal in every way. From shutting down Umedh Bhavan in Jodhpur for locals and tourists to asking chefs from Dubai and Kuwait to fly down and bake an 18 foot - long cake for their wedding, the couple went all out with their celebration. While the actress already made us aware of what her Mehendi and Sangeet functions were like, we are yet to see the pictures from her two wedding ceremonies.

According to DNA, Priyanka and Nick's Indian wedding was a gala affair. A haldi ceremony was organised in the afternoon and Nick entered the venue on a horse-drawn carriage in the evening. The baaraat began at the front porch of the Umaid Bhawan Palace and moved to the Baradari Lawns, where a grand 'mandap' was set up. Pandit Chandrashekar, who is a native of Pali, was flown in especially from Bengaluru with a team of five other Hindu priests for the ceremony. While PeeCee picked a stunning red attire for the ceremony, Nick opted for a golden sherwani. Parineeti hid her 'jiju's' shoes as per the joota chupai ceremony and demanded Rs 5 lakhs in return for the same. Nick Jonas Dancing on Priyanka Chopra's Bollywood Songs to Parineeti Chopra, Sophie Turner's Performances: Here's the Story Behind NickYanka's Sangeet Ceremony Pics.

It all began as a fierce song & dance competition between the families but ended, as always, as a huge celebration of love.  Nick and I were looking forward to the Sangeet (musical evening), another pre wedding ritual.. and to see what each side had put together. And what a performance it was. Each family telling our stories through song and dance, filled with lots of laughter and love. We were both filled with gratitude for the effort, the love and the laughter and will carry the memories of this special evening for the rest of our lives. It is an amazing start to a lifetime of togetherness for our families and friends...#grateful @nickjonas 📹/📷: @calebjordanlee @josevilla @josephradhik

According to the daily's source, "Both the families accepted and followed each other’s customs wholeheartedly. During the Hindu wedding, Priyanka’s younger sibling, Siddharth, explained every ritual and its significance to Nick’s family. Siddharth and Nick’s brothers — Kevin, Joe and Frankie — also had a fun-filled competition where they picked up the bride and groom to a certain height, right before the varmalas (garlands) were exchanged.” When Nick was informed about the significance of 'saat pheras' and they are vows taken by the bride and groom to spend seven lifetimes together, he excitedly suggested that they should take seven more.
